Rubin, I have very fond
memories of your mom. I lived on Ramsey Court for many years, and I
worked at the nursery, as well as I had my daughter there for a while.
Your parents were always very kind to my family. I lost my mother in
January, so I know the pain you are going through. Remember the memories
and that will help you through the sad times. Above all, please know how
much your mother loved you. You were the light of her life and she was
very proud of you.

I attended Cook's Day
Nursery and School 50 years ago. It was an awesome facility and I
have many fond memories and pictures from the special activities
that they provided for us.

RIP, Mrs. Cook. You and your family and staff were very special in
the lives of many.

Aunt
Macy had me at her day nursery and school since I was born in 1961. We
had many family get togethers at her house, and a lot of the school,
playground, and furnishings have been left unchanged after all of these
years. I used to run into her and Uncle Reuben for the past three years
eating out for either lunch or breakfast at both Hardee's or Hot Dog
King, and you would never find these two too far apart from the other.
They were two of the hardest working people I have ever seen, and I can
only offer cousin Reuben Jr., and his dad Reuben Sr., the peace,
solitude, and love that only can be found through family support at this
time. I will truly miss Aunt Macy. She was a very strong and stern woman
who taught us all that with a little hard work, you can accomplish
anything you wish to in life.

I
went to school there. I worked there later for 3 years. I loved and
deeply respected her.
